WHISPERING: DD
On the house.
Oh, no, I didn't
I figured you'd been stood up.
That obvious?
Thank you.
So, erm, which app did you use
to find this one on?
Deep Like.
Ah, yeah.
Deep Like.
You're not on the apps, then?
No, I am.
Yeah! I am.
Yeah, no, my last date laughed like
a fucking hyena, though.
SHE LAUGHS
You've got a nice laugh.
Thank you.
You know, I saw you here
last week.
What made you want to swipe right
for this guy?
Erm, I don't know.
Nice smile.
Nice arms.
OK.
I mean, it's good to know,
cos, erm
THEY LAUGH
I'm joking. Sorry.
Well, erm
..yeah, anyway, he's a fool
to stand you up.
Thanks. Dom?
Mm!
Hi, it's Jason.
Hi.
I'm so sorry I'm late. I got stuck
in traffic and No, no.
Have you been waiting long?
No, no, no.
I just got here.
Mate, erm
..red for the lady.
Old fashioned for me.
Top shelf.
Old fashioned. Coming up.
You don't mind me ordering a drink
for you? Oh, no.
It's actually that top and I kind of
see you with a full glass of red.
THEY LAUGH
Like I was saying, it's just a day
full of loans, loans, loans.
And if these people were so fucking
low themselves,
maybe they'd get one.
But I mean, it sounds complicated,
but it'seasy money -
relieving rich people of theirs.
What do you do?
Erm, I'm a nail technician.
Oh! What, like manis and pedis?
Mm-hm.
Well, you do the world a favour!
Some girls out there have
gnarly fucking feet, like.
You're not a feet guy?
No, really not.
Yuck.
THEY LAUGH
So, erm, what ARE you into, then?
I'mI'm into you.
Your skin is so fucking sexy.
Sexy tat.
Do you want to down these
and get out of here?
I'm game! Mm-hm?
OK.
Just be careful. It's a bit slippy.
It's a tricky one.
I'm literally just up here.

Be right back.
I was lonely out there.
THEY LAUGH
Uh!
What the?
OK, slow down. Slow down.
WHISPERS: Skin like caramel.

Wait!

No, no, no!
DOMINO PANTS
I found this spell that
you can do.
Are you scared of me now?
Your secret's safe.
What don't you want me to see?
A lone witch in Manchester?
How has she gone unnoticed?
Well, she's not doing magic
out in the open.
And she's definitely not from one
of the covens we supply? No.
Well, could you sense what her
magical specialism is? No.
What could you see in her aura?
Pfft!
It was dark.
Chaotic.
I've never seen an aura
like hers before.
I think she's hiding something.
You think she did something to him.
I mean, the lights in his flat
were going crazy.
She sounds dangerous.
Pfft, I don't know.
Maybe. Well, as coven leader,
I have to alert The Elders.
Not yet.
Sammie, you know we have to report
any lone witches.
And, Kat, I don't know
what it is exactly,
but there's something about her.
Can we find out more first?
You know what the Elders will do
if they suspect her.
# Cos I'm committed to it
# In my weakness
Power flows through it
You thought you broke me
But you opened me up ♪
How long is that coffee going to be?
Artistry takes time.

Mm.
What a talent.
Your mum must be so proud.
Absolute knobhead.
What a twat.

You're looking suspiciously chipper,
though. Stop!
Got some kind of sex glow.
Stop!
Well, whatever the glow,
take it to the streets
and get these out in a bit.
OK.
Still got some slots to fill.
Hey.
Maybe you'll meet someone
at our speed dating sesh.
Oh, no, I am not looking
for anything serious.
Been burned?
My, ermex ghosted me.

Give the girl a goldfish.
Oh, OK. My friend came in here
like a month or so ago.
He had your card.
He's gone travelling and he's left
his grimoire.
Can you open it?
Your friend have a name?
Erm

Not ringing any bells.

Let's have a look. Yeah.
I don't have it on me right now,
but I can get it to you tomorrow?
Sounds good.

Nice lad.
What was he doing here?
Just browsing.

a lovely piece I keep downstairs.
You want to see?

Oh, I can't right now.
But, erm, can we do it tomorrow?
Sure. Yeah? Mm-hm. Thank you.
OK.

Too many chemicals.
I mean, it's minging,
but this'll work.
Hair is perfect for the
probing spell.
Sammie, what you got?
What's she doing with another
witch's grimoire?
Do you think she's charmed it
to make it look blank?
This is weird.
Yeah.
PHONE PINGS

Listen, I might work in a wanky bar,
but doesn't mean I like drinking
in them.
Yes, it is SO wanky!
I knew it!
I knew you wasn't a
wanky bar girl.
Also, I think you're more than
a girl who just goes
for a nice smile and nice arms.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah, you hated Mr Old Fashioned
last night.
But you feel like you've got to be
out here finding your match.
OK, Mr Observant.
Maybe I'm just bored
and filling my time.
Maybe I'm doing that right now.
Nah, we both felt that spark.
Are you one of those
overly cocky boys?
Aw!
Nah, not at all.
So what you see is what you get
with you?
Yeah, average barman.
You know, shit at bowling.
Very good-looking.
For God's sake!
How long you been single?
A while.
Yeah, sorry.

I don't know what that was.
Don't apologise, it's OK.
It's OK.
Thank you.
It's OK.
Oi, oi! Hey!
Like, I don't get it.
All our power and she barely even
flinched.
This date was different, though.
Not like the last one.
But, like, what IS she?
Super freaky.
And not in a fun way.
But I've seen her aura.
I think she's scared, too.
SLURPING
Think it's done, babes.
Kat, what should we do?
Let's regroup here tomorrow, OK?
I'm clocking out.
Erm
Kat, don't tell the Elders
about Domino yet.
Why not?
Because they'd just go for her,
and we still don't have all
the facts yet.
Do you think you can pick up
her aura trail again?
Yeah.
OK, follow her.
See what she's up to.
Hey, here you go.
You've got the best glass.
Well, the only glass in the place.
Yeah, worst barman ever.
Cheers.
Yeah, cheers.
Nice?
Mm-hm.
I'll go put on some music.
No, no, no, no!

We've been watching you.
What did you learn?
That you're doing something
to humans.
But you don't want to be.
What you thinking, Kat?
I've never seen anything like it.
I want answers.
We're going to need some privacy
for this sort of magic.
God, what does this all mean?
Was he studying me?
I am guided by my ancestors.
I call on you
